  •  MOE of is the point with small sub-samples (0+ / 0-)

    If you start out with a larger sample you can go down to smaller subsamples without having your MOE explode.

    Example with AA

    PPP: 2300*.18 (N=414) (AA) ~MOE=5
    SU:  700*14 (N=93)(AA) ~MOE=10

    So, PPP has a MOE of 5 for their AA numbers of Obama v. Clinton and SU has a MOE OF 10.
